Questions
Quick answers
Is a Peace Palace tour included?
No. The plan uses public frontage views and the visitor centre if open. An interior tour requires a separate booking and changes the day’s timing.
The days these rules belong to
3 days in The Hague
Use three full days and reserve available museum sessions before fixing the order. Most selected art museums close Mondays, while Mauritshuis has a later Monday start. The government and Peace Palace stops use public exterior viewpoints. Hotel and first-stop journeys are additional.
